Standard (EADGBE)

You don't have to paint me a picture, the handwriting's

on the wall.

It's very plain to see that you don't love me, no, you

never loved me at all.

You went out with other fellas, you think that I don't know?

Well, you don't have to pin a rose on me, cause I knew it

long ago.

Chorus

I have tried to make excuses, for the things you do.

I've tried to be fair in every way.

It's no use pretending that you haven't been untrue,

it's over now, so I'll be on my way.

I don't need a fortune-teller, I don't need a crystal ball.

It's very plain to see that you don't love me, no, you

never loved me at all.

(INTERLUDE:)

Chorus

I have tried to make excuses, for the things you do.

I've tried to be fair in every way.

It's no use pretending that you haven't been untrue,

it's over now, so I'll be on my way. Hey! Hey!

I don't need a fortune-teller, I don't need a crystal ball.

It's very plain to see that you don't love me, no, you

never loved me at all.

You don't have to paint me a picture, the handwriting's

on the wall.

It's very plain to see that you don't love me, no, you

never loved me at all.

Outro

You don't have to paint me a picture, the handwriting's

on the wall.

It's very plain to see that you don't love me, no, you

never loved me at all. (Fade.)
